Modeling the Stakeholders in Water Supply Systems

Description: Das Projekt "Modeling the Stakeholders in Water Supply Systems" wird/wurde gefördert durch: Bundesamt für Bildung und Wissenschaft / Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich, Professur für Siedlungswasserwirtschaft. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Eidgenössische Anstalt für Wasserversorgung, Abwasserreinigung und Gewässerschutz.Modeling the involved stakeholders' characteristic goals, strategies and rules of behavior allows to estimate efficacy or potential risks of past and actual engineering- and management concepts. The study is driven by the observable shift from security- to cost-centered strategies of utilities and the difficulty to gain flexibility while balancing technical and financial needs of an uncertain future. An agent-based model is developed, calibrated with domain knowledge from involved experts, documented in a rule-catalogue, and validated in part with real data sets of a water utility. Despite the complexity of the depicted system, simple model rules are able to reproduce in general the development of both capacity and cost related parameters. Scenario simulations show the effects of different strategies on key-parameters such as capacity, water price or financial dept.
